Will nuclear energy become a reality in Aus?, page-23

whilst this is correct - ''For the past month or more, the argument rejecting nuclear energy has overwhelmingly been about cost and to a lesser extent the time involved in building large-scale nuclear power plants.''

personally I think the issues against nuclear are that cost should be the least concern -

it IS the timing and the timing is determined by many factors - IMO, all of which are more problematic than pure cost

I frankly don't think that in this era right now - that Australia could do nuclear at all

even if it could afford to pay a reasonable amount and was fully prepared to.

You just cannot get Ted and Mick from Walkabout Creek to design and build this kind of thing - you just can't

and the people who are required through every level of nuclear design and build and run - are in monster demand by many nations

little old Oz and Walkabout Creek just don't cut the mustard

it's 40 or 50 or more years too late
